The outcome of this case would be different in Canada. In 1949, Canada adopted the US bankruptcy discharge bar but omitted the exclusion for "wilful and malicious injury" and later put in a narrower exclusion for intentional assaults in s. 178(1)(a.1). theglobeandmail.com/business/artic…

"Parole" is from "parole d'honneur", the "word of honour" by a POW they would not take up arms if released. First recorded use in the criminal sense is in criminal slang in 1906. Pretty neat that criminal slang ends up as the title of a federal board. #etymologyalert

I always thought the word "primordial" was sort of mystical-sounding. In fact, it's from Latin "primus" (first) plus stem of "ordir" (order), so literally "first in a series". More mathematical than mystical! #etymologyalert

Jesus: “I’m amazed that men like you can be so shallow, thick, and slow.” Caiaphas: “Tell the mob who sing your song that they are fools and they are wrong.” Seems like a good mediator could have bridged that gap.

Twice in the last 4 months the @SCC_eng has taken swipes at interveners. Interveners go beyond the issues framed by the parties because the Court itself does so. SCC appeals are tough. The Court should be encouraging lawyers who offer assistance (for free).

Looking forward to attending the @CJFE Gala this evening with my Stockwoods colleagues. Nice to be back hobnobbing in person while supporting an important cause.

thestar.com/opinion/star-c… This is a serious flaw. Publicly accessible invoices and receipts are key to finding discrepancies in campaign filings. Elections oversight for municipal elections was already pathetically weak. This change makes things even worse.

"Mortgages are now the largest contributor to the annual rate of inflation". Isn't it a bit circular to use CPI to gauge the need to raise interest rates if the CPI is being driven by higher interest rates?! @globeandmail theglobeandmail.com/busin
